Accepted

My thoughts while seeing the movie "Accepted" were about the stress, worry, and pressure to perform academically that high school graduates encounter when they enroll in colleges. As a result of this pressure, students frequently lie to their parents in an effort to win their trust and approval.

I felt joy, sympathy, laughter, and inspiration. I felt sorrow when I saw the students' desperation to get him out of his predicament and the help he received from his friends in establishing a fictitious college.

I related to Bartleby Gaines' character. His approach to education, inability to give up, and aggressive approach against conventional schooling resonated with me. His plan to establish a prestigious university is not only funny but also incredibly imaginative and motivating.

Education must be more than just studying for tests and memorizing material from textbooks. Learning is about more than just memorization of information and maintaining a particular grade point average. Learning, exploration, experience, and challenge should be the main focus instead. The movie asserts that by narrowly defining intellect and measuring success by how effectively you can respond to a test question, our educational system fails children.

According to the film, technology can influence improvements in schooling. Our lives are greatly impacted by it. Bartleby set up a website for his fictitious university, to which many applicants—including some who were rejected at the other university—applied. Students might learn and pursue their hobbies on his make-believe campus. At the said university, their interests become their course of study.

Even when it feels as though the world is against you, it is vital to fight for your dreams and follow your passion. By including aspects of comic relief, the issue of breaking the stereotype promoted by the educational system is conveyed in a lighthearted and enjoyable way.

The movie "Accepted" teaches me never to belittle other people's goals and aspirations just because they differ from your own. Additionally, this film emphasizes the value of letting our imagination run free. We should think beyond the box as students to create something significant for our own future. Keep others without ruining our own enthusiasm and interest.
